Essex: The search for Cumali Turhan has come to a tragic end. Police found his body at a landfill after 45 days of searching. It’s heartbreaking.
Turhan, 46, was last seen at The Globe pub in Chelmsford on November 19. His family has been notified about the discovery, which must be devastating for them.
Authorities believe he may have been murdered. They’re looking for Ceyhan Dinler, 38, who left the UK on the same day Turhan was last in contact.
In a related case, Ciprian Ilie, 44, appeared in court charged with assisting an offender. He looked emotional during the hearing, which is tough to see.
Ilie pleaded not guilty to the charges and is set to stand trial in September. It’s a complicated situation, and the police are piecing together what happened.
After leaving The Globe, Turhan might have gone to another bar called Barista, but there’s no CCTV footage showing him leaving. He was reported missing when he didn’t show up for work that evening.
